Sehwag: "The winds of change blew towards Delhi. We were focused on staying fit and practising hard. The decision to open with Mahela clicked and it showed that he led from the front. If I bat well, I try to control my innings. Sir Viv Richards told me to overcome my fear and believe in myself."

Sehwag is the Man of the Match

Mahela: "Great effort by the boys. Showed a lot of character after losing 6 games. Viru batted really well, it was good to watch from the non striker's end. We have to try and control what we can control. We cannot think about what the media is saying and that's what we did. We can still improve. 160 was a good score but we needed a good start and we got that. Both of us enjoyed batting on that wicket."

Ponting: "I'm not sure what happened! 161 was going to be a pretty competitive total. But we didn't have any answers, especially in the first 6 overs. They got the momentum and they ran away with it. We thought if we could take a couple of wickets after the first 6 overs, we could come back but their opening stand was too good. We've lost 2 in a row but we know that things can change quickly. The ball didn't swing, Johnson's weapon is to get the ball in to the right hander. So that's why we left him out. We also wanted Smith to open"

A much needed win for Delhi. High time as well. They lost 6 in a row but looked nothing like a team out of form. All thanks to Sehwag and Mahela. 162 looked like a tricky chase at the innings break but Sehwag and Mahela made it look like a walk in the park. Sehwag was at his attacking best, while Mahela was all class. Both were effective though, and their 151 run opening partnership just smashed Mumbai out of the game. That's Mumbai's second consecutive thrashing, after the game against Rajasthan.

Bumrah to Sehwag, FOUR, and that's the way to finish the game! A slower delivery again but it's too short, Sehwag pulls it away to the deep backward square leg boundary. Fittingly, it was Sehwag who finished the game - what a game he has had! Just shows what can happen when he plays like that
